Question

Which of the following statements can be inferred using the above information? Bubble A. Cells can function equally as well at all pH's because enzymes are effective at all pH's. Bubble B. Cells only function within a specific temperature range because enzymes only function within a specific temperature range. Bubble C. Cells only function within a specific pH range because enzymes only function within a specific pH range. Bubble D. Cells can function equally as well at all temperatures because enzymes are effective at all temperatures.

Answer 1

Hello. Your question is incomplete. The complete question asks for the correct answer to be found based on Catalase is an essential enzyme in living beings since all cells need it.

Answer:

B. Cells only function within a specific temperature range because enzymes only function within a specific temperature range.

Step-by-step explanation:

Catalase needs to be present in all cells of the living organism because it is responsible for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide that cannot stay inside cells for long periods of time. Following this type of reasoning, we can say that it is necessary to maintain a constant temperature for the enzymes of an organism to function well because all enzymes have a specific temperature range, even catalase.

The specific temperature range determines that the enzymes will only work within that range. Therefore, an environment where the temperature is below or above that specific range, can prevent the enzyme from functioning and even cause irreversible damage to the enzyme.
